The view from my belly button #11Carmen Constantinescu (14) doing home work on the room she shares with her 2 younger sisters. Frasuleni village, Victoria municipality, North East Romania. The girls have been living with a neighbouring family who are paid to take care of them after their mother and father emigrated to work in Italy and Germany. Save the Children Romania quotes official government statistics that there are currently 23,312 Romanian children with both parents working abroad, although it is widely accepted that these are very conservative estimates! Emigration is one of the largest causes of depopulation in Romania.Image by Anastasia Taylor-Lind @anastasiatl @viiphoto#negativezero is a photographic project by Anastasia Taylor-Lind about Europe’s declining populations.
